The Shuōwén Seal form of 乾(􂤯𠄃􂤰𠄊) qián/gān combines 倝(􁉝) qián/gān (phonetic), together with 乙(􂤮) (天干); 倝(􁉝) itself combines 旦(􁉛) dàn ‘dawn/sunrise’ and 㫃(􁉠􁉡𣃗) yǎn (phonetic). The character 㫃 is said to represent ‘flag/streamers/banners’, as in 旌旗 jīngqí ‘standard/banners’, and as in 旅(􁉹𣃨) lǚ ‘army marching under a standard’. 乾 ☰䷀ Qián (pure yáng) is associated with the ‘royal colors/standard’, in the same way that 阳/(􁧕) yáng is said to contain 勿(􁧓) wù ‘flag’.

The character 乾 is an old form, today still used in simple-form texts when the reading is 乾 qián (☰䷀), but simplified to 干 when the reading is 乾 gān ‘dry/dried’.
“The 日 sun rising behind the trees of the 㫃 jungle... enlarged by 乙 the meaning of which is uncertain” —Karlgren(AD).
+
Note: 乾 (11 strokes) is an abbrev. of older complex forms such as 𠄃 (13 strokes) and 𠄊 (19 strokes); formerly wr. 倝, which as a component is sometimes abbrev. 𠦝.
The right side of 乾 only happens to look like 乞(􀃳气) qì/qǐ (乞 is not a traditional component of 乾).
+
The Shuōwén Seal form of 乾(􂤯𠄃􂤰𠄊) qián/gān ‘rise/dry up’ combines 乙(􂤮) yǐ ‘sprout up’ (天干), with 倝(􁉝) gàn (phonosemantic); for the function of 乙 here, cf. 辰(􂥳) (☳䷲).
As a full form, is also used for gān ‘dry’ (warmth of the 日 sun). Among simple form characters, 干 is used for gān ‘dry’.
+
Compare: 倝(􁉝) gàn ‘shining rays of the dawn sun’, in which 旦(􁉛) dàn ‘dawn/sunrise’, and 㫃(􁉠􁉡𣃗) yǎn ‘flag/streamers/banners’ (phonosemantic).
The phonetic of 乾, 倝 without 乙, is also the phonetic in 幹(􀾾𣘒), which is the full form of 干 gàn ‘do’.
+
Note: The component in 倝 is as in 旌旗 jīngqí ‘standard/banners’, and 旅(􁉹𣃨) lǚ ‘army marching under a standard’; 乾 ☰䷀ Qián (pure yáng ‘male’) is associated with the ‘royal banners/colors/standard (flying high)’, in the same way that 阳/(􂢨􁧕昜) yáng (⚊) is said to contain 勿(􁧓) wù ‘flag’; cf. 阳, 易.
Compare 朝(􁉟𦩻) zhāo ‘morning’, cháo ‘dynasty’.
